About:Located about 30 minutes from Waikiki Beach, this small intimate bistro serves stylish, fresh, and flavorful Japanese dishes, and is a favorite of the area's bedroom community residents. The service is subdued although attentive and the setting is filled with warm colors in a Japanese decor. Booth and table seating are the mainstays and advance reservations are essential at this tiny spot, although the parking is ample and readily available. Sushi is one of the better choices and the teishoku is definitely some of the best in the area. - Lottie Tagupa

    Kunio Restaurant: sorry not a big fan of anything from the ocean, but i was happy to reel in a chicken katsu plate. it wasnt the best ive tasted but it was certainly the most expensive. one problem with this place is the tables are too close together. its like you're all one big party. i was lucky enough to be sitting next to 2 girls who wouldnt stop talking. i should have asked if i could side order a wall or something.

    Difficult to get in: Their food is good, the restaurant is very popular with very little space. Waits are long with no seating area and they do not take reservations, even for large parties. They have a party room, but will not accept reservations for it. Good food, but very difficult to get in without a very long wait.

    Traditional Fusion: Just came back from a New York, Las Vegas, LA, San Deigo trip. First thing I did was to come and have a real sushi meal at Kunio. I don't know when this trendy fusion stuff came from but those so-called creativity ain't sushi. To me, nothing beats an order of prime cut ahi on sushi rice that's seasoned just right. If you crave real sushi, this is the place.
